The Palestinian Authority makes no attempt to educate its people towards peace and coexistence with Israel. On the contrary, from every possible platform it repeatedly rejects Israel's right to exist, presents the conflict as a religious battle for Islam, depicts the establishment of Israel as an act of imperialism, and perpetuates a picture of the Middle East, both verbally and visually, in which Israel does not exist at all. Israel's destruction is said to be both inevitable and a Palestinian obligation.

The following description of Israel's founding in a Palestinian schoolbook represents the dominant dogma about Israel:

"Palestine’s war ended with a catastrophe that is unprecedented in history, when the Zionist gangs stole Palestine … and established the so-called State of Israel."
[Arabic Language, Analysis, Literature and Criticism, grade 12, p. 104]

This official PA map of "Palestine” was broadcast on PA TV in September 2011. The map includes both the PA areas and all of Israel (excluding the Golan Heights) wrapped in the Palestinian flag - a symbol of Palestinian sovereignty over the whole area - and has a key through it, symbolizing ownership. Similar maps presenting all of Israel as "Palestine" appear in Palestinian schoolbooks and are shown regularly on PA TV.

"Palestine" replaces Israel

The Palestinian Authority paints a picture - both verbally and visually - of a world in which Israel does not exist. Children’s educational TV teaches that Palestine currently is a "state" (Arabic "dawla" = state) covering 27,000 sq. km - i.e., an area that includes all of Israel (the entire West Bank and Gaza Strip total only 6220 sq. km). Moreover, all Israel’s cities and infrastructure are referred to as "Palestinian": “Palestinian ports ... [are] Haifa, Jaffa, Ashkelon, Eilat, Ashdod, and Gaza". [PA TV (Fatah), Sept. 1 2008].

Maps provide visual reinforcement for this perception: Israel does not exist on any map; its area is marked as "Palestine." Maps showing the entire area of Israel covered with the Palestinian flag are routinely displayed at official PA events.

This educational documentary, depicting all parts of Israel as “Palestine," has been broadcast repeatedly on PA TV (Fatah) from 2007 – Oct 1, 2010:
“The West Bank and Gaza have another section in Palestine which is the Palestinian coast that spreads along the [Mediterranean] sea, from …Ashkelon in the south up to Haifa, in the Carmel Mountains. Haifa is a well-known Palestinian port. [Haifa] enjoyed a respected status among Arabs and Palestinians especially before it fell to the ‘occupation’ [Israel] in 1948. To its north, we find Acre. East of Acre, we reach a city with history and importance, the city of Tiberias, near a famous lake, the lake of Tiberias [Kinneret- sea of Galilee]. Jaffa, an ancient coastal city, is the bride of the sea, and Palestine’s gateway to the world.”

The image shows people at a beach with the sunset in the background. Over them appears the PA map of “Palestine” that presents all of Israel as “Palestine” together with the PA areas, and inside the map is a large key representing the “right of return” of the Palestinian refugees.

Jibril Rajoub also holds the following positions: Head of the PLO Supreme Council for Sport and Youth Affairs, Chairman of the Palestinian Football Association, Chairman of the Palestine Olympic Committee, and Chairman of the Palestinian Scout Association (PSA).

Zayzafuna is a PLO magazine for children partially funded by the PA. The magazine, which includes material written by both the magazine's staff and child readers, shows the kind of messages the publishers deem suitable for youth and also serves as a window into the minds of the Palestinian children submitting material to the magazine. Zayzafuna's website no longer exists but stated (in May 2016) that the magazine's advisory board is comprised of PA officials and educators, including Jihad Zakarneh, PA Deputy Minister of Education, and Abd Al-Hakim Abu Jamous, Head of the Media Department at the PA Ministry of Education. Zayzafuna (October 2017) included a note on its third page acknowledging the PA Ministry of Culture for its financial support of the printing of the magazine. It also included a disclaimer, stating that: “The opinions and texts in the magazine do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the Zayzafuna Association.” In May 2011, the Deputy Chairman of the Zayzafuna organization Abd Al-Karim Ziyada explained on PA TV that the PA gives "a monthly payment of 10,000 shekels ($2,700) to cover the magazine's [costs]."

Text on map: “And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war [by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy]” (Quran, Sura 8:60, Sahih International translation)
- The text is visible in this photo of the map from the ambassador’s office.

“For this the second consecutive day, the occupation authorities have been forbidding residents of the city of Umm Al-Fahm in the territories that were occupied in 1948 (i.e., Israel) from entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque and praying there (On Aug. 8, 2017, Israel prevented the families of three terrorists who murdered 2 Israelis on the Temple Mount from coming to the site, based on information that they planned to disrupt public order. For more information on the terrorists see note below –Ed.).”

The PA and its leaders consider all of the Temple Mount an integral part of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Therefore they view any presence of Jews on the mount as an “invasion.” It should be noted that Jews who visit the Temple Mount only enter some sections of the open areas, and do not enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome of the Rock.

Muhammad Ahmad Muhammad Jabarin, Muhammad Hamed Abd Al-Latif Jabarin, and Muhammad Ahmad Mufaddal Jabarin - Israeli Arab terrorists aged 29, 19, and 19, who shot from the Temple Mount at Israeli policemen, murdering 2 Israeli Druze border policemen - Haiel Stawi and Kamil Shnaan, on July 14, 2017. Two of the terrorists were shot and killed by other policemen during the attack. The third terrorist was shot and killed while trying to flee.

At a camp organized by the National Committee for Summer Camps, a drawing of the PA's map of "Palestine" was accompanied by the following text:

Text next to map: "Palestine
Location: The continent of Asia, eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea
Territory: 27,009 square kilometers (the combined size of Israel and the PA areas is roughly 27,000 square kilometers -Ed.)
Borders of Palestine: Lebanon on the north
The Gulf of Aqaba and Egypt on the south
Jordan on the east
The Mediterranean Sea on the west"Click to view bulletin

Significantly, the text's alternative "facts" reiterate the PA message that Israel doesn't exist or will not exist in the future. The description of "Palestine's" territory as 27,000 square kilometers includes the area of all of Israel in addition to the PA areas. The West Bank and Gaza together are 6,220 square kilometers. The description of "Palestine's" borders is also wrong, as it is Israel that borders Lebanon and the Gulf of Aqaba.

Excerpt of op-ed by Omar Hilmi Al-Ghoul, regular columnist for the official PA daily

Headline: "The round of violence in the '48 [territories]"
"The cities, towns, and villages in the Galilee, Triangle (i.e., a concentration of Israeli-Arab towns and villages in northern Israel), and Negev, and on the coast in the ’48 [territories] (i.e., Israel) are witness to a round of acts of violence that is escalating…
The latest incident occurred two days ago [June 2, 2017] in Nazareth, where one victim was killed and six people were injured as a result of an argument between two families. Such a case can be dealt with, despite the large number of victims. However, the identity of those committing the other crimes in the rest of the towns and villages is still unknown, and the background of the crimes is uncertain – even though the reasonable assessment is that the perpetrator was from among the Palestinian people. Nonetheless, the identification of the perpetrator is not sufficient to solve these crimes, as hidden hands from the Israeli security establishment are behind them…
The matter does not end with the Israeli police and its negligence in pursuing the criminals…
There are additional parties, for which the Israeli security and political establishment is responsible in order to realize aspirations and goals that are not hidden from the eyes of the members of the [Palestinian] people in the Interior (i.e., Palestinian term for Israel)..."

Palestinian boy: “He joined the Arab folk dance with a rifle in his hand,
He made a vow and fulfilled the promise:
Palestine, my land, will remain decorated,

“Ever since the characteristics became clear of the new [textbook] edition that UNRWA (UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East) has distributed to its teachers, which includes changes in the new textbooks for grades 1-4, a great indignation has arisen among all sectors of the Palestinian society who have said that these are changes that harm the Palestinian identity and perpetuate the occupation’s existence…
This is not the first time that UNRWA is accused of inserting terms into the Palestinian textbooks for students of its schools, as this matter came up several years ago when it tried to insert the term ‘Holocaust’ into the seventh grade national study material…
The [PA] Ministry of Education and Higher Education re-emphasized its firm opposition to any change or correction in the Palestinian textbooks, after it was disseminated that UNRWA is attempting to do this. The ministry said in a statement, a copy of which reached [the independent Palestinian news agency] Donia Al-Watan, that according to international law UNRWA must use the textbooks of the host country. The ministry explained that it will take ‘punitive steps’ against anyone who attempts to change the textbooks or manipulate them.
The ministry explained that any attempt to change the textbooks constitutes an attack against Palestine and a targeting and erasing of the national identity. It emphasized that what was reported indicates a direct targeting of the national aspect of the textbooks, in a manner that is consistent with the occupation’s plan that warps and distorts these books.

The Israeli occupation army prevented members of the first Wandering Youth Camp, under the title 'Know Your Homeland,' from entering the Ibrahimi Mosque on Thursday [March 16, 2017] as part of a tour that was set by the Hebron district. This was on the pretext that the participants wore the camp’s shirt, on which is the map of Palestine (i.e., the PA map of “Palestine” that presents all of Israel as “Palestine” together with the PA areas) alongside the slogan ‘Know Your Homeland.’
The occupation army was not satisfied with this arbitrary step, but also intentionally delayed the participants for an hour, which encouraged the participants to refuse to obey this unfair decision. They also firmly opposed taking off the camp shirt, because it bears symbols that instill adherence to the land and identity in the minds of the youth and the participants themselves.”

“In February 1981, late president Yasser Arafat appointed Salah Al-Zawawi as the PLO representative in Tehran, after Martyr (Shahid) Hani Al-Hassan resigned from his position and moved to Beirut. Following the Oslo Accords between the PLO and the Israeli enemy, Iran refused to recognize the [Palestinian] Authority that was established in accordance with the accords, and refused the replacement of Al-Zawawi and the appointment of a new ambassador. Therefore he has remained in his tenure since that time, and has spent 36 years of his life in Tehran…
The most veteran of the Palestinian diplomats (i.e., Al-Zawawi) does not deny the existence of differences of opinion with Tehran, but [notes] ‘Every side needs to accept the position of the other side with understanding, and we must fight for the liberation of Palestine. The form of fighting that is demanded of members of our people in the 1948 lands (i.e., Israel) is different from that which is demanded of those in the West Bank, and a different method is demanded of those in the West Bank than those in Gaza. There is diplomatic fighting.’ He continued and said, ‘There is no doubt that everyone needs to fight in his own way, beginning with carrying out stabbing and car ramming operations and ending with firing rockets, and in this way we will liberate Palestine from the [Mediterranean] Sea to the [Jordan] River.’ He also argued: ‘There is a Jihad that is controlled by the geographic conditions, and everyone needs to aid it in accordance with their location, abilities, and conditions… all of the means of struggle are legitimate, beginning with debka dance (i.e., Arab folk dance) and ending with armed struggle that is meant to realize Allah’s promise and bring liberation.’ …
The ambassador no longer believes in the Oslo Accor

A young Palestinian girl, Gharad Qassem, recites the following poem:Gharad Qassem: “I am a Palestinian boy
Who are you, foreign boy? And from where did you come? And what is the stone that is in your hand?
I am a Muslim Arab, a free person forever
You do not have the right to ask
I did not come here, but rather you are the one that came
I was born here long ago,
Before you
Before you came to my land
I am a Muslim
My roots are in the depths of history
I am a Palestinian, my roots are in Safed, Ramallah, El-Bireh, and Gaza
I am a Palestinian, my roots are in Haifa, Jaffa, Jerusalem, and Nablus
I am a Palestinian, my roots are in every grain of soil
A rock in my hand, my head and my heart –"

[The PA ministry added that] the dark dreams of an extremist man cannot change the truth by one iota, and that Israel, the last occupation force in the world, must disappear and never to return.”

Israeli Minister of Environmental Protection Zeev Elkin said on Jan. 24, 2017: “The Palestinian Authority is living on borrowed time, and it is necessary to think about what will happen after it falls apart.

Excerpt of op-ed by Omar Hilmi Al-Ghoul, regular columnist of the official PA daily

"If we take the Palestinian cause and the nature of the conflict with the Israeli ethnic cleansing state and carefully examine the forms of resistance, then in principle every form [of resistance] against Israel, whatever it may be called – political, diplomatic, economic, cultural, social, media, educational, tourist, sport, military, etc. – is included under the 'resistance' clause. But while deepening our examination of the forms of resistance, [we discover that] not all forms bring the desired results…

If we take as an example the model of resistance by knives (i.e., stabbings), which characterized the popular uprising from the beginning of October 2015 through May 2016 (see note below –Ed.), [we will discover that] even though this method succeeded in sowing fear amidst the Israeli army, the herds of settlers, and even within Israeli society, as an individual act, not consolidated and without a plan and guidance, it has unfortunately had a negative influence on the conflict, and has whetted the appetite of the Israeli extremist right government led by [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu to legislate a series of laws and to issue a series of criminal military orders - which has expanded and deepened the blow to the members of our people…

Therefore, the Palestinian people has not achieved the desired goals from the resistance by knives, but rather opposite results.

Fatah Central Committee member Azzam Al-Ahmad: "We agree to a state on territory that is 22%, and perhaps less, of the land of historical Palestine. By the way, I personally ? all of our [family's] lands, thousands of acres in the Jezreel Valley (i.e., Israel) ? none are in the '67 lands (i.e., West Bank), but rather in the '48 (i.e., in Israel). Despite this, I am certain that a Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, 1967 will return my historical rights to me in full. I am certain of it. Therefore, I am certain that we need to start. The historical examples of this are many. North Vietnam. There was a North and a South [Vietnam]. What is its name now? Vietnam! Isn't it?"Click to view bulletinClick to view video

Official PA TV program Inside, on the boycott of Israeli goods, hosting Palestinian Ambassador to the European Union Abd Al-Rahim Al-Fara

Official PA TV host: “Israel is losing millions and perhaps billions of dollars as a result of the global boycott. The Israeli occupation has noticed this, and therefore it is trying to get around or outwit them. It takes the goods of the settlements out to other places, in other words to cities within occupied Palestine, which is called ‘Israel’ in quotation marks, and it places a sticker according to which it [the product] was produced in Tel Aviv or another city. It is possible that in this way it succeeds in outwitting them. Is the European Union, or the [European] citizen on the street, alert to this matter?”

Palestinian Ambassador to the European Union Abd Al-Rahim Al-Fara: “[That is] an important question. Not all European citizens are alert to this. But the official European bodies are certainly alert to it.”

The Golan is part of Syria, and all of Israel is occupied Palestine… What I say is that the occupation of Palestine is an evil thing that will end with the return of the occupiers to the place from where they came. I do not expect that the justice will include putting the members of the Israeli government on trial as the Nazis were put on trial after the fall of the Nazis, but just that they will leave, as Mahmoud Darwish requested when he said to them that they ‘pass between fleeting words’ and that they should take their names and get out from on us. All of their news is a crime or lies. The Jewish holiday of Passover falls on the 22nd of this month, and it marks the anniversary of the exodus of the Jews from Egypt. According to information I have received from two university professors, which was verified by my friend, the archeologist Zahi Hawass, this whole story is a biblical myth.

These attacks, which killed a total of 125 Israelis, included the most lethal in Israeli history - the hijacking of a bus and killing of 37 civilians, 12 of them children.

Headline: "Israel's terrorists blame others for what exists in them"Op-ed by Jihad Al-Khazen in the official PA daily, re-printed from the London-based Al-Hayat
"I have worked in journalism non-stop since I was an adolescent, and I followed the terror of the white regime in South Africa and the massacres in Rwanda, and also in Srebrenica (i.e., town in Bosnia and Herzegovina ) after the division of Yugoslavia. However, all of this is dwarfed by the terror of the Israeli right-wing and the government of war criminal settlers, headed by the most despicable man in the world, [Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu, and the US Likud (i.e., American Friends of Likud), which protects the last apartheid state in the world.
[US] President Barack Obama spoke at the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington about preventing the 'dirty bomb' [from reaching] the hands of ISIS. He did not speak about Israel's nuclear arsenal, despite the fact that Israel and ISIS compete with each other in [the field of] terror…
There is no peace with the Netanyahu government. It is a government that includes the most right-wing extremist terrorists who live on biblical myths that never actually took place. The name of the land is Palestine, and it is occupied, and Israel is a myth, written hundreds of years after the alleged events.
In conclusion, the terrorist right-wing in Israel does not include all of the Israelis and Jews, as there are many groups of Jews working for peace and defending the Palestinians, and they deserve gratitude and appreciation."

Land Day – an annual commemoration of the general strike and demonstrations organized by Israeli Arab residents of the Galilee on March 30, 1976 to protest the Israeli government's decision to expropriate land in the Galilee for security and settlement purposes, which it later implemented. During the protests, demonstrators burnt tires, blocked roads, and threw rocks and firebombs. Six demonstrators were shot and killed by the Israeli army and police. Israeli Arabs and Palestinians consider Land Day a national day.

“I came across the Near East Report for March [2016] published by the Jewish lobby AIPAC. A torture [to read]. All of the terror in Israel is attributed to its enemies, clearly and scandalously relying on Congress’ support of the occupation, killing, and destruction. There was a main article titled The Island of Stability in the Middle East Emphasizes the Importance of the Strategy of the US-Israel Alliance. I tell you that this alliance is responsible for the lack of stability in the Middle East, and that Israel’s terror is what started all the other terror – from Al-Qaeda to ISIS, and everything in between… Congress members are talking about ‘the Palestinian terror.’ I tell them that the terror is Israel, and that this is terror funded by the [US] Congress, instead of it transferring funds to poor Americans. Afterwards, I will add that Israel is a fraud and a new phenomenon that has no basis in history or geography, and that Palestine is from the [Jordan] River to the [Mediterranean] Sea.”

"The occupied city of Umm Al-Fahm"
“Umm Al-Fahm, or Umm Al-Nour as its residents call it, is an Arab city, all of whose residents are Muslim, and is located in the Triangle (i.e., a concentration of Israeli-Arab towns and villages in northern Israel) area, and more precisely in its north, in the north of the center of occupied Palestine. The Mamluks founded it in 1265 (sic., some archeological sites around the town date back as far as the Iron Age – 1200-600 BCE), and it was given to Israel in 1949 according to the truce (Hudna) with Jordan, or what is known as the Rhodes Agreement (sic., apparently referring to the Lausanne Conference of 1949, see below). Israeli forces entered it on May 22, 1949… The stereotype of Umm Al-Fahm held by the Jewish sector is that it is the most extremist Arab town, and this is because of its residents’ resolve, their preservation of the Palestinian nationalism, and their strong hatred of the Israeli occupation.”

The Lausanne Conference of 1949 was convened by the UN Conciliation Commission for Palestine (UNCCP) in Lausanne, Switzerland April 27 – Sept. 12, 1949. It was attended by representatives of Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria and the Arab Higher Committee and refugee delegations, representing Arab refugees from Israel. Its purpose was to resolve disputes arising from the 1948 war between Israel and its neighboring Arab countries.

“Read with me: The Palestinian and Arab terror against Israel – this is the topic [of the statement] published by AIPAC, Israel’s lobby [in Washington], which means that this is a blatant lie on the part of a group of traitors from among the US ‘Likud’ (i.e., center-right political party in Israel), working for Israel at the expense of their own ‘country.’
The lobby published a list of operations (i.e., terror attacks), carried out since last Oct. 1 [2015] until today (reference to wave of Palestinian terror attacks, September 2015-April 2016), by Palestinians subjected to occupation, against settlers and the forces of the criminal, terrorist Israeli government.
Israel is the terror today, while the fighting Palestinians are heroes of a national liberation movement. Why are there settlers on the land of Palestine? All that is called Israel is Palestine, but I and the majority of Palestinians have agreed to a state on only 22 percent of this territory. However, the terrorists in the Israeli government and the settlers did not agree to that…

Likud websites talk about an ‘unholy alliance’ between radical Islamists and American leftists in universities… And the immorality has reached Oxford University in England, where the head of the Labour Club (co-chairman of the club, Alex Chalmers. –Ed) has resigned, on the grounds that the students are acting out of Antisemitism against Israel. If this is true, who is responsible? Israel is responsible, as its crimes against the Palestinians have led many people to blame all Jews for that (i.e., Israel’s acts), although most of them are innocent of the crimes of the occupation government.

Fatah Shabiba activist Haitham Abu Radwan: “Today, after decades of Zionist occupation, the young Palestinians and the current Fatah generation prove each day that the Fatah movement is the pioneer, the movement that did and still does bring about the victories, because its primary principle is the liberation of Palestine from the [Mediterranean] Sea to the [Jordan] River. This is the principle upon which we have been educated and which was taught to us by the elder, Yasser Arafat. For this reason, the young Palestinians began the popular uprising, which still [continues] today with stabbing and car-ramming operations (i.e., terror attacks) and popular uprising through rock-throwing at every point of confrontation and conflict with the Zionist. The establishment of Fatah 51 years ago, and its anniversary today, are a single message: That its goal is the liberation of Palestine and a Palestinian state from the [Mediterranean] Sea to the [Jordan] River with Jerusalem as its capital.”
